I've heard somewhere that women who are in their 20s stick with men in their 20s. The reason I ask this silly question is because I'm turning 30 in a few months, and I feel I've missed out on dating women in their 20s. Also I think that women in their 20s don't want to date a man who is 30 or older.

If she's 28, she probably won't care that you're 30. If she's 23, she might think you're too old. It depends on the woman though.
I don't think that's the case, by and large. Assuming, of course, that we're talking about women in the mid-to-late 20s. A lot of women in their very early 20s prefer to date guys around their own age.
I'm 28 and would prefer a man in his early 30s, but not more than 5 or so years older than me. Of course, for some odd reason the guys I meet that are in their early 30s tend to look like they're in their 40s or older. I met a pretty interesting guy at my local dive a few weeks ago and we got to chatting..he ended up hitting on me and I was thinking 'You're older than my dad...no way...' and he told me he was 27, a full year younger than me!!!
I went out with a 21-year-old a few years ago. I was 34, I believe. I didn't know he was 21 but we went out anyway. Kinda soured my outlook on dating people in the early 20s. He was more concerned about 'bragging' to his buddies about me and trying to look good for his own ego, than he was about getting to know me as a person. It was awkward to say the least.

He may be fibbing. I had this happen to me and curiosity got the best of me. Found out the guy was 11 yrs older than he was posing to be! I darted so fast. Lmao now that I think about it! I was disgusted that he told such an outrageous lie.
But to the OP, I have dated guys younger, older than, and my same age. It's just who I connect to. However I will say that my experience with dating men 3 or years older than me just have not been good. They have wanted to move toooo fast, talking about marriage waaay to soon, and were somewhat controlling. Also, bc of the age difference if we were in a debate he figured he was always correct bc he had more life experience. Hated it bc I felt like I couldn't grow with him. So keep this in mind if you do date women in their 20's. I am 27 now and I think I'm going to stick to someone close in age, atleast for a little moment. Up until age 25, dating a 30 yr old was out of question for me.
However, this is my individual experience, I know many girls in 20's who date older men and love it. It's kinda hit or miss, but the younger you go, be prepared for a women who does not completely know who she is and therefore not completely sure of what she wants. It can sting ya if your not careful.
Just curious, what do you think you've missed out on?

Nope, he was definitely 27... I asked his friend who happens to be a really good friend of mine and who works with him. This isn't the first time it's happened either, I live by the beach and it may be the increased sun exposure that ages people.
Im 25 and I along with all of my friends my age or younger only date men their age.
